Texas First Diploma Program
- Background Information:
- Increasing access to higher education for all students is a priority for the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board (THECB).
- THECB worked with the Texas Education Agency (TEA) and enrollment and admission leadership at institutions of higher education (IHEs) in Texas to develop and launch the Texas First Program.
- This program comprises two parts:
- 1. A diploma program, which allows students to graduate high school early with a Distinguished Level of Achievement by demonstrating early readiness for college.
- 2. A scholarship, which awards scholarship credit equivalent to up to one year of the TEXAS Grant at all Texas public institutions.
